Recipe By Nita Holleman
Source:  "Tim Bowley"

Serving Size: 1    

1 medium zucchini per person
garlic powder
salt
paprika
5 pats butter
1 slice bacon
Parmesan cheese -- grated

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
Wash and gently scrape medium size zucchini -- 1 or 1 1/2 zucchini per person.
Split them in half lengthwise.
Lay zucchini halves side by side in a baking dish or pan with the split sides up. 
Sprinkle each half liberally with garlic powder.

Sprinkle also, to taste, with table salt and paprika.
Place 4 or 5 pats of Butter on each piece, OR,
lay a strip of good smoked bacon lengthwise on top of each half.
Grated Fresh Parmesan Cheese (optional)

Place baking dish in center of oven and bake until zucchini is fork tender
(15 to 30 minutes, depending on size and amount of zucchini). 
If crisp bacon is desired, you may want to broil them a couple of minutes
before removing from the oven.  If just using Butter on top, you might
like to sprinkle with grated FRESH Parmesan Cheese just before serving,
or serve cheese on the table to add if or as desired.

SERVE HOT AND ENJOY!
